“Miley Twerking On Things We Should Talk About” Is a Tumblr We Should Talk About

August 27, 2013

The speed at which that story by The Onion savagely ridiculing CNN dot com’s decision to put the “news” of Miley Cyrus’ VMA performance on its front page yesterday was astounding. It filled Facebook and Twitter feeds–currently sitting at an astounding 243.5k FB likes and 13.4k Tweets. (Even more astounding: 1.7k people have shared the story on Google +) The Onion spoof is a story people want others to see, because it’s a story that directly reflects their outrage about real news being swept under the rug in favor of salacious dreck. Now, some enterprising someone has created a similarly minded Tumblr, “Miley Twerking On Things We Should Talk About.” Take a look at it.
